Jeep Wagoneer Towing and Hauling Ability

While the Wagoneer was reintroduced in 2022 with a 5.7L HEMI V8 with 392 horsepower and 404 lb-ft of torque. However, in search of better efficiency and more power, Jeep engineers swapped the larger naturally aspirated engine out for a twin-turbocharged 3.0L straight-six engine. While offering better fuel efficiency, performance is also maximized with 420 horsepower and 486 lb-ft of torque. This power, when paired with rear-wheel drive and Jeep's Heavy Duty Tow Group, provides drivers with a towing capacity of up to 10,000 pounds. Meanwhile, 4x4 models achieve a maximum towing capacity of up to 9,860 This is plenty of capability for boats, campers, and just about anything else you may need to pull! The intelligent TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission provides optimal shift mapping based on driver input and the additional weight to provide smooth acceleration and gear changes even with a trailer attached.

The Wagoneer offers available technologies and features to make towing easier than ever. Air suspension, for example, is great for providing up to 10 inches of ground clearance with 3.6 inches of suspension travel and adjustable height settings. However, it is also nice to have when linking up with a trailer. Lowering the air shocks to their lowest setting before linking up a trailer helps you align the hitch with the trailer's tongue easier. Plus, with the available Trailer Hitch Zoom feature integrated with the backup camera, you can focus the camera in on the trailer hitch to guide it precisely where it needs to be the first time every time. These features and more contribute to the Jeep Wagoneer's best-in-class towing capacity of 10,000 pounds.

In addition to the wide range of packages available for the Jeep Wagoneer, the Heavy Duty Tow Group is also available. This adds a wide range of features to the Wagoneer to achieve its maximum towing capacity. The first thing added by the Heavy Duty Tow Group is a 3.92 rear axle ratio. With a lower axle ratio, the engine provides lower RPMs for maximum efficiency. However, with a higher axle ratio, like the one added by this package, the engine maximizes acceleration, making it ideal for hauling additional cargo. This package also adds an electronic limited-slip rear differential, which quickly redistributes up to 100% of the engine's available torque away from a wheel that has lost traction to regain and maintain traction. Heavy duty engine cooling is also provided, venting excess heat to cool the engine when it is being worked hard, such as when towing a trailer. If you plan on towing a trailer with brakes, the trailer brake controller feature will come in handy, seamlessly coordinating the Wagoneer's brakes with the trailer's. This is a fully integrated and electronic system. Other features added by the Heavy Duty Tow Group include chrome front tow hooks, a removable rear tow hook, trailer hitch zoom, and more. Plus, for 4x4-equipped Wagoneer models, a two-speed on-demand transfer case and Selec-Speed Control are added to optimize the towing experience.
